It may be denied to a prisoner even when he makes out a sufficient case, if the competent authority is satisfied that releasing the convict would not be in the interest of society while furlough can be granted periodically irrespective of any reason. x Parole is granted for the prisoner to meet a specific exigency while furlough may be granted after a stipulated number of years have been served without any reason. Hence, statement 2 is not correct.
